User reviews

A brilliant concept, with brilliant results. Only problem is, sometimes, the logos in the websites change (which is obviously the intention), but the thumbnails on the tabs and bookmarks bar do not change (or even vice-versa). I hope that these issues are quickly fixed, since I find this addon to be truly underrated, as someone who has got used to, but still doesn't really like the look of the September 2020 icons.
